Lived here a few years ago, dealt with so many problems
Pros
The neighborhood and the apartment itself were lovely
Cons
Struggled with roaches - was having pest control come every week, nothing was working. Heat was an issue - my apartment was above the lobby and got extremely cold in the winter. Chain smoker who was grandfathered in lived across the hallway, smoke was constantly getting into my apartment and nothing could be done. Building was always relatively dirty.
Great 1st NYC apt
Pros
Easy neighbors, lots of light in the front of the building, amazing subway access, responsive management, never had a package stolen / great entry system
Cons
Garbage sometimes overflowing, but never seen a pest in the hallway; walk up with a narrow-ish hallway, so moving was a little tougher but doable
